When you're Owned by a big C, Corporation
If you want to work, you must sign here. You cannot be politically active, it would undermine our company. And now we are your owners. So don't talk back.

How long before everyone is required... to abide by rules governing to whom they may donate politically. And what sort of political activity they may take part in.


Sounds like what we were brought up to rebel against - communism. Of course now we know it as fascism. But today it comes under the banner of Corporatocracy. Sounds like the bad old days to me. When people could not be open about their associations. When people were kept in fear. Like in the time of McCarthy.

That's it, now we're going backwards. And that's what the big guys want for us little people.

1. They want to turn us into serfs, regulating our private lives.
Serfs in the middle ages had to have their lord's permission to marry or leave the manor, among other things.
